WOOL IS HERE--

The white wool I ordered--
came in yesterday--
so we went to work and cut out our bunny--

He is sewn in--along with his tail--
but needs alot more stitching before we are done--
even a baby chick on his back yet--
Today the next block came in--
and I do have it traced--

but have not started looking for the wool colors yet--
I have a whole month to do this one!!!!!!!

And here is how I am hand quilting the heart quilt--

can you make out what I am doing here--
it will be a cross hatch pattern when done--
am using red thread for that--
except on the heart block itself and then using white thread --
I am using a pen with pink chalk lead and the --
well-can't remember what that white tool is formally called--
but it does work--I use that to mark on the white blocks!!!

And yesterday as I was walking past Mr. Zebra's tank I seen this--

guess he was cleaning off the gnomes hat--!!!

and in today's mail--
this came--

My walking foot for the sewing machine--
now to get brave enough to put it on and use it!!!!

Enjoy the moments, Di
PS--I have been going back though my first posts--
oh my is that a 'trip'--
can't believe the amount of clip art I used --
here is flash back for you--

Does anyone remember Mrs, Perkins???
and what about this story??

When I ordered these and thought I was getting mixing bowls--
instead got these little bowls???
well--they did move with me--and are now my morning Organic Applesauce bowls!!!
